Many people treat it as rubbish. Mrs Moyo and her club members see it as source of livelihood.

They recycle the rubbish to produce products such as hats, caps, bags, washing baskets, mats, sanitary wears, artefacts for decoration and learning materials for Early Childhood Development learners.

"We sell these products to residents in the area, motorists and schools. The prices range from 0.50 cents to US$ 10 depending on what the customer is buying," says Mrs Moyo.

The revenue generated from the business, she adds, helps her to buy food supplies and groceries for her family on daily basis.

Mrs Moyo was encouraged to join the waste management club during a campaign that was being run under the water and sanitation hygiene (Wash) programme.

"While many look at rubbish and disregard it and rush to dispose of it, I see it as a source of livelihood. I may not be able to fetch a lot of cash by selling products from the recycled waste, but at least I am able to put food on the table for my family," says Mrs Moyo.

They were educated on the importance of hygiene and how to make products out of waste under the Wash programme.

They were also trained on how to make a few of the products. However, as a club, Mrs Moyo says they used their creativity to broadened the scope of products that they could produce from wastes.
